Our Pick of the Week: Planet Palmerston

Posted on June 8, 2017

There are no shortage of yard sales in Toronto this time of year, but Planet Palmerston is one you won’t want to miss.

This Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Palmerston Boulevard (between College and Bloor) will come alive with yard sales, bake sales, lemonade stands, plant sales, BBQs, and live music in support of Habitat For Humanity GTA, with residents either pledging a percentage of their sales or making a minimum donation. There will also be a “Habitat Headquarters” at 400 Palmerston, where anyone can donate goods and 100% of the proceeds will go to the charity.

The event will also feature a raffle with some great prizes, including a film 10-pack from Hot Docs Festival and dinner at Insomnia, movie passes to Royal Cinema and dinner at Sidecar, and a free chiropractic assessment and massage therapy session from Ritacco Chiropractic.

To date, Planet Palmerston has raised over $20,000 for Habitat For Humanity GTA.
